people don't see the problem in having killer whales do shows, it can be argued that orcas in captivity and having them do shows has multiple issues. One reason is that orcas can be driven crazy when kept in captivity. Second of all, killer whales need more space than any aquarium can give them.

My research topic for my secondary source paper is plastic pollution. My research question is what impact has plastic pollution had on our oceans in the past 25 years. My family has always been big into traveling and when we do you will typically find us in the water snorkeling. The place that stands out most in my memory is Hawaii; the water was crystal clear, the coral bright, and the turtles would swim right next to you. This is where I fell in love with the sea, but this is also where I…
from Dave. Another talking head in "The Cove", Mandy-Rae Cruickshank, who is a world class freedivers, describe her experience swimming with a whale and dolphins as the most incredible things ever in her life. With all these sharing, isn't the connection between dolphins and human noticeable? There is no reason that we can still agree on hunting minke whales. What is more, dolphins are smart. They understand how to manipulate situations, relate to people and how to create innovatively. A video…
they can feel disturbances in the water from up to a mile away. When great white sharks are young, they feed on smaller prey, like fish and rays. As they grow larger, they feed more exclusively on marine mammals, such as sea lions, seals, and small whales. The great white is at the top of the food chain and has few threats in the ocean. Only orcas and larger sharks can…

Thesis Statement: Sea lions and dolphins affect the community and the world by helping humans. Ronald Reagan once said, “We can’t help everyone, but everyone can help someone.” This quote is true for animals because animals can’t help every animal or every human, but they can always help someone. Animals choose to help humans, they don’t have to, but they do. Sea lions and dolphins both help people in many different ways, they can't help everyone though. Sea lions and dolphins affect the…
